You know that you are the greatest rugby writer in the world. Now you have the chance to show the world by submitting your article here for free. You will notice that we have removed those pesky ‘sponsors messages’ in the RHS Sidebar so that you can really let the creative writing juices flow without any distractions.
If you want to write a first person observation rather than a structured piece as below then please also feel free to do so. Now, SCROLL down to submit your piece.
We are looking for a certain standard and provide these handy hints to help you:
- Answer the 5W’s and 1H: Who, What, When, Where, Why and How.
- Be objective (keep opinions and ‘flowery language’ out of the story).
- Get your facts right.
- Don’t plagiarise.
- Give credit where it is due.
- Cite references.
- Provide URL’s so that your readers can discover more.
- Rather be accurate than first.
- Start with the most important facts first and follow with supporting information.
- Don’t copy and paste your press release from word processing software – use notepad or other.
The news releases that gain the most attention adhere to the above guidelines, are entertaining and are NOT pure sales pitches.
All published submissions will point to the writer’s web site. Regular contributors will be granted Author privileges.
